I tried to apply this patch on top of 3.15-rc1, but it fails because of the
streams support added to xhci_find_new_dequeue_state()

After some manual editing the interesting parts of
xhci_find_new_dequeue_state() looks like this:

@@ -577,46 +568,57 @@ void xhci_find_new_dequeue_state(struct xhci_hcd
*xhci,
if (ep->ep_state & EP_HAS_STREAMS) {
struct xhci_stream_ctx *ctx =
&ep->stream_info->stream_ctx_array[stream_id];
- state->new_cycle_state = 0x1 &
le64_to_cpu(ctx->stream_ring);
+ hw_dequeue = le64_to_cpu(ctx->stream_ring);
} else {
struct xhci_ep_ctx *ep_ctx

= xhci_get_ep_ctx(xhci, dev->out_ctx, ep_index);
- state->new_cycle_state = 0x1 & le64_to_cpu(ep_ctx->deq);
+ hw_dequeue = le64_to_cpu(ep_ctx->deq);
}

+ /* Find virtual address and segment of hardware dequeue pointer */

+ state->new_deq_seg = ep_ring->deq_seg;
+ state->new_deq_ptr = ep_ring->dequeue;
+ while (xhci_trb_virt_to_dma(state->new_deq_seg, state->new_deq_ptr)
+ != (dma_addr_t)(hw_dequeue & ~0x1)) {
+ next_trb(xhci, ep_ring, &state->new_deq_seg,
+ &state->new_deq_ptr);
+ if (state->new_deq_ptr == ep_ring->dequeue) {
+ WARN_ON(1);
+ return;
+ }
+ }

Also the comparison of the dequeue pointers, using (hw_dequeue & ~0x1) might
have some troubles with streams. Endpoint context TR dequeue pointer LO
field has bits 3:1 reserved (probably zero) but stream context uses those
bits. Would it make sense to use (hw_dequeue & ~0xf) here instead?

Ah, yes, looks like that patch wasn't in Linus' tree yet back when I
wrote this. I think your merge looks pretty good... just use
(hw_dequeue & ~0xf) instead of (hw_dequeue & ~0x1) to get the pointer
as you said, and this should work fine.

But I'm still concerned about the dequeue pointer in the streams case.
streams may be nested, we might be pointing at another stream context
instead of the dequeue pointer.

Since I've not followed the entire discussion previously to this I cannot
really provide any useful feedback on this patch. Other then 2 remarks:

1) We don't use nested streams, so no need to worry about those
2) You're right that for streams to get the dequeue address you need
to mask with ~0xf

Hans
